The Cave of the Yellow Dog (2005) - 92 min

Country: Mongolia
Director: Byambasuren Davaa
Cast: Urjindorjyn Batchuluun, Buyandulamyn Daramdadi, Batchuluuny Nansal & Batchuluuny Batbayar.
The Batchuluun family shifts from one place to another according to the seasons. The oldest daughter, Nansal brings home a dog and names him Zochor. Nansal's father refuses to allow her to keep it.
German director Byambasuren Davaa interviewed many Mongolian families and finally decides to go with Batchuluun family. The compelling story immerses into us and the scene stealer in the movie was Nansalmaa Batchuluun. Outside you can see the story of a girl and her adorable dog, Davaa actually welcomes you to feel how Mongolian nomads live in the world and feels like their affection, love is entirely different from us. Overall, it's a fascinating movie to watch and no words to say about the final showdown.
Verdict: Good
